Description:
The problem of cluster analysis is formulated as a problem of nonsmooth, nonconvex optimization. An algorithm for solving the latter optimization problem is developed which allows one to significantly reduce the computational efforts. This algorithm is based on the so-called discrete gradient method. Results of numerical experiments are presented which demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
